that's really bad practise on your schools part.

I know ! The teacher in charge of my reference got my biology teacher to change mine from an A to an A* because he thought it would look better :L

I wish I'd applied to Exeter or Bath now as atleast I'd have an indication of where I stand being as they seem to be quick replying :P.

Anyone heard from York, Sheffield or Leicester regarding Biochem/ Med Biochem?

Ouch things like that really piss me off lol but it's your school's fault so I wouldn't worry about it, good luck with your application anyway.

woohoo yay!
i see you've also applied to southampton - did you go there for an open day? i've applied there but never been there before.. what's it like? :smile:

It was amazing, I liked it more than Bath and Exeter. The man in charge of the School of Biosciences was a Biochemist and really passionate about it. The campus was really nice as well. I applied to Exeter without visiting, too :smile:

Good choice! :P
I think it looks really interesting- glad my Biochemistry personal statement didn't hinder me.
